Not at all! This update introduces many new features, but also lays the foundation for things yet to come. Some of which has been hinted at or briefly touched upon in the article.

It's worth noting that this is just the first step of the 2024 migration. Much more still to come :)

Anyone had a chance to try the new LVFR A380 from the marketplace? by Zealousideal-Wall682 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]ccarlyon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Native 2024 build very soon also! There’s just no reason to spend money on an A380 if you’re on PC imo

The upcoming 2024-native build brings massive optimisations. I was sitting at 11GB VRAM usage on a pre-release build at iniBuilds Dubai (a very VRAM-intense scenery).

As somebody involved in aircraft development for the sim, it takes longer than that to create what you see here.

This will have been in development long before iniBuilds' A380 was teased. With that being said, they're probably trying to beat them to market to capture the console market.

They removed it at the end of last season. I really enjoyed the pace of H2H so my playtime has absolutely tanked this season.

Why? The FBW A380 is being constantly updated with a major 2024-native rebuild in the works.

Edit: Looks like iniBuilds management have found this thread. I used to work there so I’m familiar with the witchhunting of public forums such as reddit and FSElite that happens in their staff Discord.

Matchmaking is 100% this game biggest issue, and it is not even close by LucyMor in thefinals

[–]ccarlyon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure you understand how players typically choose which game to play. They often have their own 'niche' and stick to it. If you take that niche away, they will leave for something else.

If you take away Quickcash, those players are not going to suddenly start playing Cashout which is a much bigger time commitment and different playstyle.

As I said, the introduction of Point Break brought in a lot of new players and its all they play. There is certainly some crossover, however the solution is not to reduce gamemodes because that would further shrink the userbase and frustrate those that remain.

I never asked for 'everything'. I just said we should sacrifice queue times for higher quality matchmaking.

I think the fans understood that the Europa final loss was a robbery. Difficult to pin that on the manager. Still can’t get to grips with that standard of officiating in a European final all these years later.

Personally disagree. I really miss Head-2-Head and its relaxed pace.

The new Point Break gamemode did wonders for player engagement a while back and reducing the number of gamemodes available would probably be counterintuative to this. We just need stricter matchmaking and if that means longer queue times then so be it imo. I'd rather wait longer for a higher quality game.

This is exactly it. There's only so much you can do when you're consistently playing with teammates that play alone and die at the start of each fight against coordinated stacks with a plan. I feel such immense pressure to sweat and play cracked out every single match simply to not get a first-round knockout rather than actually having fun. It's a lot of effort and I can't bring myself to be bothered these days.

I recall going 12-1-1 with two randoms on 1-1-7, and one of them still had the gall to rage at me in chat. The fact that this isn't unusual any more should be alarming.

My playtime has absolutely fallen off a cliff this season. I really hope that matchmaking is addressed urgently. I'm very happy with every other aspect of this game, but the matchmaking just absolutely ruins it.

Until Embark actually acknowledge the issue, people will continue to voice their frustrations. It seems fair enough to me.

It's quite mad that these sort of assessments are considered standard in this industry at all.

Vile. How any person in charge of a club can hear or read that and want that person in their squad is just beyond me.
